Hey Everyone!
I just got back from my training through Missionary Training International (MTI) a few weeks ago, but because of Christmas I never was actually able to write about it. So I thought I would copy some of the thoughts I had written down during my three weeks there...
So I've been here at MTI for a little over two weeks now and have just been completely blown away. I came very reluctantly dragging my feet and complaining that I had about 50 other things I needed to do instead right now. However, it didn't take long until my hardened heart was broken, and God was doing big things in me.
Through a completely trustworthy community I learned so much more about trusting God and even others. This Sunday I got really sick and my room that I had to myself was the last room away from ...well anything, the kitchen, the lounge, it all, so as I was laying there not really able to move in fear of getting sick again, I started to worry. I worried about what I would do if I needed to get something to drink or even eventually eat. I didn't think I could do it on my own, and what was worse was that I didn't have anyone's number to even call. In my worrying though, I heard God's voice just saying trust me I will take care of you. So I tried, I still felt a little stressed, but I didn't have much choice other than just to trust Him.
Then in a few hours I heard a knock, it was a friend coming to check on me, she along with several other people came in all day, checking in on me and nursing me back to health. And what was more was that the kitchen was even serving chicken noodle soup that day. That evening I just sat back and was amazed at how God provided and cared for me. He even reminded me of how important it is to trust others and allow them in as well. In the end I am just in awe of His faithfulness and even thoughtfulness, down to the chicken noddle soup. He is fully trustworthy!

It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning, your faithfulness in the evening"
